is the sweet answer
The Science of a healthy life
Farming 2.0 which makes use of both high tech advancements in technology and science, as well as sustainable, organic principles holds the key to feeding our global population while also preserving our planet.
In a study published earlier this year, scientists making use of 500 different food production scenarios focused in on the task of feeding a global population of 9.6 billion people without expanding our farmland footprint which we already use.

What the study found only strengthen what I have talked about for quite some time now, and that is that enough food can easily be produced by adopting organic and sustainable - high tech farming.
Making farming 2.0 something that benefits both your own and our planet's health.
In the study, the cold hard numbers showed the following.

[ The Conclusion]
Vegetarians:
If people started eating a more plant, fruit and berry based diet with much lower meat consumption.
Existing farmland would then feed 10 billion people with a 94% success rate without needing to expand at all upon our global food production footprint and with much lower resource drain and global pollution.
As a sidenote:
The much healthier food would also result in way healthier people, greatly improving everyday life for each person but also improve the global economy. And let´s not forget one very important thing here, the quoted 94% number would be much higher if food producers and consumers not only go green and sustainable as in the study but also adopt all the high tech aspects of farming 2.0, benefits that isn't included in the study.
Business as usual:
The same wasteful current day farming and food production would however only be able to feed 15% of the estimated 10 billion human population if the entire world adopted the red meat/crap food based Western-style diet. And as always, you can find a link to the relevant study down below.

It was acquired at a distance of approximately 1.1 million miles (1.8 million kilometers) from the rings.The real life scale is 7 miles (11 kilometers) per pixel. And how mindblowing is not that?
